Chapter 553

Not to mention, the Ultimate Emperor Armor also possesses the Time-Stopping Zen Seal. As long as Ming Wang has no way to break this move, it has no way to fight the Ultimate Emperor Armor with full strength; it must remain vigilant against the opponent pulling this underhanded trick.

"In other words, Lu Li won?" Although this scene before her eyes was highly likely to be the case, and although she and the Demon Lord were not exactly on the best of terms, thinking of this result still gave Liu Mengli a feeling as if a lifetime had passed.

Not long ago, he was just a young man who had stepped onto the path of a Magic Card Master, and now he actually already possessed the strength to contend with the Demon Lord.

Contend, not defeat!

The Ultimate Emperor Armor that Lu Li transformed into was very strong; this point was beyond doubt, and Ming Wang was the best example.

But although Ming Wang was an existence surpassing the twelve-star level, this could not represent that Ming Wang was the Demon Lord's entire combat strength. As a Supreme Realm Demon Lord, the Demon Lord did not only have Ming Wang as this top-tier combat force.

At the very least, Liu Mengli knew clearly that Ming Wang was not the strongest combat force in the Demon Lord's hands.

If it truly were to erupt completely, Liu Mengli still did not believe the Demon Lord would lose. The current Demon Lord was showing less than half of the combat strength from the peak period in her memory.

Especially since the Demon Lord was currently still in a weakened state; it was possible the combat strength was only one-third of what it used to be.

"You brat, your hand is really ruthless enough!" The Demon Lord's voice came, and accompanying the Demon Lord's voice, the sky-filling dust and smoke also dissipated at this moment.

Ming Wang's figure had already disappeared; it was clear that it had already, unknowingly, transformed back into a Magic Card and returned to the Demon Lord's body.

As for whether it was the Demon Lord who took it back voluntarily, or if it was insta-killed by the Ultimate Emperor Armor's Five Saints Finishing Move, the result was no different.

Of course, Lu Li was still more inclined to believe that Ming Wang had been smashed to pieces by the Ultimate Emperor Armor's Five Saints Finishing Move.

If it still had combat strength, with the pride of a thirteen-star existence, the opponent would absolutely not have disappeared without a trace just like that.

"That was, after all, an existence surpassing the twelve-star level; I couldn't afford to hold anything back, Your Majesty Demon Lord." Touching his belt to cancel the transformation, Lu Li shrugged his shoulders.

He was not wrong; no matter what, Ming Wang was a thirteen-star existence. Although Lu Li was very confident and certain about the Ultimate Emperor Armor, it did not mean Ming Wang was an opponent that could be dealt with casually.

"Is that so? But how come I feel like you still held back quite a bit?" Regarding this, the Demon Lord could not help but roll his eyes. Just based on Lu Li's performance, he did not believe this was the opponent's full strength.

But it was precisely because of this that the shock in the Demon Lord's heart was even greater, even more beyond compare.

An Immortal Realm defeating an Undying Realm, or even crushing an Undying Realm, was already shocking enough, but for even himself, a Supreme Realm, to fail against the opponent, this was truly extraordinary.

After all, the one he had just sent out to fight was the thirteen-star Ming Wang. Although that was not his entire strength, it could not be denied that such a performance was already enough to shock everyone.

If that scene just now had been seen by outsiders, they would probably be unable to help but doubt their lives. In the entire Magic Card civilization, there were only three Supreme Realm existences in reality. For everyone, the Supreme Realm was a natural chasm, an insurmountable gulf.

Perhaps ordinary Magic Card Masters would dream of achieving Immortality, achieving the Undying, and becoming a hegemon of a region, but only regarding the Supreme Realm, no one had such thoughts.

It was not that they were unwilling to become Supreme; on the contrary, the Supreme Realm had always been the pursuit of all Magic Card Masters, but one had to distinguish reality in their pursuits.

Perhaps they still had a chance to hope for Immortality and the Undying, but for the Supreme Realm, that was truly sorry—even the most insane person would not have such thoughts.

At the very least, before achieving the Undying Realm, no one would have such thoughts, because saying promotion was "ten deaths, no life" might be too much, but it was far beyond the degree of "nine deaths, one life."

Even the Undying Realm ancestors of the three great families that the Demon Lord had cleared out not long ago only dared to act tyrannically during the period when the Demon Lord had fallen into a deep sleep, and only dared to plot against the Demon Lord after confirming there was a high probability the Demon Lord would die.

And now, if someone said that a young Magic Card Master possessed the strength to contend with a Supreme Realm while in the Immortal Realm, they absolutely would not believe it.

Even if the Demon Lord had not used full strength and was in a weakened state, Lu Li's state was likewise not his strongest.

1049, Testing with a Supreme

"Brat, are you sure you aren't lying to me?" Fiddling with the Monster Reborn Magic Card in his hand, although he already knew the effect of this Magic Card, the Demon Lord was still a bit hesitant.

It was not that he feared death; having reached this level, he saw things much further than ordinary people, and he understood that a Supreme Realm would not necessarily not die—it was just that they were longer-lived than ordinary people and less prone to dying.

But facing death was one thing, and what kind of death it was, was another matter entirely.

If the effect of Monster Reborn worked, then naturally it would be a happy ending, but if the effect of Monster Reborn didn't work, then perhaps he would be the most stifled Supreme in history to die.

For the sake of his posthumous reputation, the Demon Lord felt it was still necessary to confirm it with Lu Li again.

"Mm, the problem shouldn't be big." Regarding this, Lu Li kept his expression calm, mainly because he had never tried the effect of this Monster Reborn Magic Card himself—or rather, who would be bored enough to go die once just to test the effect of this Magic Card?

Not only Lu Li, but even among the Monster Reborn Magic Cards he had distributed before, no one was bored enough to use their own life to test it.

Even if it really worked, the moment of dying was also very painful!

Therefore, the Demon Lord naturally and logically became the first test subject for this Monster Reborn Magic Card.

Furthermore, because the opponent was a Supreme Realm existence and the top powerhouse of the Magic Card civilization, as long as Monster Reborn also produced an effect on a Supreme, then it would likewise be able to produce an effect on Magic Card Masters of other realms.

This test could be described as killing many birds with one stone.

Should be?

The Demon Lord's eyelids could not help but twitch. He was now one hundred percent certain that this brat who had abducted his family's "big cabbage" was using him for testing.

"What? Scared?" Liu Mengli spoke suddenly. "If you're scared, why not continue with the previous blood sacrifice plan? It can also extend your life."

Between her words, the disdain in Liu Mengli's eyes was plain to see, yet both Lu Li and the Demon Lord could hear the concern in her tone; this was also Liu Mengli's reverse psychology.

Even though Lu Li's series of performances earlier gave Liu Mengli absolute confidence in him, after all, this concerned the Demon Lord's life and also concerned the entire Demon Domain; Liu Mengli had to consider more.

The best way was to use blood sacrifice to extend the Demon Lord's life; this was the safest method. As for herself, she wouldn't mind being the first test subject for Monster Reborn.

"Do you think that's possible?" Facing Liu Mengli's goading, the Demon Lord was calm. As his descendant, how could he not see through Liu Mengli's intentions?

Blood sacrifice might be the safest method to ensure one's own existence, but the Demon Lord clearly had no such thoughts from the beginning.

It was just that he was also very depressed in his heart: what exactly had happened during the time he was asleep that Liu Mengli, in his memory, had turned into a "big cabbage"?

Although he was also very satisfied with Lu Li—nonsense, with this strength, it would be a ghost if he weren't satisfied—but this was also a thought every father would have.

If the Demon Lord knew that not only the "big cabbage" but even his own "little cabbage" had been abducted, I'm afraid his expression would become even more spectacular, and perhaps he might even have another round of real-life combat with Lu Li.

Although Ming Wang was gone, he did not only have Ming Wang as this one thirteen-star Magic Card Spirit.

Terrifying energy fluctuations spread out from the Demon Lord's body, and a suffocating aura filled the entire space. Lu Li hugged Liu Mengli and retreated rapidly; even he felt uncomfortable in the face of this suffocating aura, let alone Liu Mengli.

However, very quickly, after the terrifying energy fluctuations on the Demon Lord reached their peak, they immediately dropped. In the blink of an eye, there was no longer any life aura on the Demon Lord, and the entire space returned to its original calm; that suppressing aura was like a flash in the pan, as if it had never existed.

Only, whether it was Lu Li or Liu Mengli, both of their attentions were now entirely focused on the Demon Lord.

Without a doubt, the Demon Lord had already dissipated all of his own vitality. Even so, the opponent still stood in place like a pillar reaching the sky, giving one a feeling of looking up at a high mountain.

Now, it was time to see if Monster Reborn was really that effective.

Fortunately, they did not wait for too long before the Monster Reborn in the Demon Lord's hand emitted a gentle energy. With the location of the Magic Card as the center, it gradually covered the Demon Lord's entire body, and a rich life aura was continuously poured into the Demon Lord's body at this moment.

As time passed, a new life aura was born again within the body of the Demon Lord, who had originally been completely devoid of life.

Noticing this scene, Liu Mengli could not help but breathe a sigh of relief. She had really been afraid just now that Monster Reborn wouldn't have any effect; that would have been troublesome.

No matter what, the Demon Lord was one of her only remaining relatives. Even though she and the opponent were not on good terms, after so many years, she had also become much more mature.

As for Lu Li, he was more focused on the entire process of revival.

"Monster Reborn can produce an effect on a Supreme; in other words, it can also produce an effect below the Supreme level."

"However, this entire revival process is a bit different from what I imagined. It's not that it can revive immediately, but it needs a period of time."

"In this way, the effect of Monster Reborn will have to be discounted somewhat."

If it were an instant revival, then the effect of Monster Reborn would be absolutely explosive, but if it were like this before his eyes, needing a period of time to fully revive, then the effect would have to be discounted somewhat.

After all, the situation on the battlefield changes in an instant; such a small amount of time might be enough for the opponent to kill oneself again.

"However, this is just a result obtained from observation. Whether there are any defensive measures when Monster Reborn produces an effect, it seems I still have to test it."

"Or, see what the person involved has to say."

Lu Li was also seeing the specific manifestation of Monster Reborn's effect for the first time. Even as the creator of this Magic Card, without having personally experienced the effect of this Magic Card, he could only guess based on what he observed with the naked eye.

But it wouldn't take long before he could ask the person involved about their feelings.

After this period of time, the vitality within the Demon Lord's body had fully recovered. At the same time, the Monster Reborn Magic Card in the Demon Lord's hand also disappeared without a trace.

1050, Shall we discuss our own things later?

"A very magical feeling!" This was the Demon Lord's first sentence after revival. Looking at his own hands and feeling the rich vitality in his body, the eyes of this Supreme Realm powerhouse were full of shock.

Only by truly experiencing Monster Reborn and returning from death could one understand the special nature of this Magic Card, and could one understand just how much of a genius the Magic Card Master who created this Monster Reborn Magic Card was.

"Your Majesty Demon Lord, how do you feel?" Judging from the Demon Lord's performance, it could basically be confirmed that Monster Reborn had no side effects, but Lu Li still wanted to confirm further.

"Feelings? Although it's not as good as the peak period, the injuries that troubled me and caused me to fall into a deep sleep have fully recovered." Hearing Lu Li's words, the Demon Lord laughed. It could be seen that his mood now could be described as very good.

Subsequently, this Supreme of the Demon Domain did something that surprised both Lu Li and Liu Mengli.

"Lu Li brat, thank you." In his words, the Demon Lord had already bowed to Lu Li, although the angle was very small—after all, no matter what, the Demon Lord was a Supreme existence.

But it could not be denied that this action of the Demon Lord indeed startled both of them, especially Lu Li, who instantly flashed to the side.

If it were someone else, perhaps he wouldn't be like this, but the one before him was the Demon Lord. It wasn't because of the opponent's Supreme status, but because the opponent was Liu Mengli's father—not to mention there was still Liu Yanran behind.

If he really accepted this from the Demon Lord, and later the opponent found out about his relationship with the two girls, that would be fun.

"Cough, cough, Your Majesty Demon Lord, you are too polite." Flashing to the side, Lu Li then spoke.

On the other hand, Liu Mengli, who was to the side, was now looking at him with a look that was not quite a smile, completely with an expression of watching a good show.

Seeing this, Lu Li glared at her without a trace. If the Demon Lord weren't present, he would absolutely let this Princess of the Demon Domain know who exactly was the master of the house.

"Still calling me Your Majesty Demon Lord? Lu Li brat, you are a bit distant." Seeing Lu Li's action, the smile on the Demon Lord's face became even greater.

Although his own "cabbage" had been arched, the person who arched the cabbage still looked quite good, and even solved a problem he had never been able to solve.

Looking at it this way, this result was not unacceptable.
